Attention, Vermont Officers.

Every one who has visited the state-house
at Montpelier has noticed the large frames
containing photograph portraits of the
officers of the Vermont regiments in the war

exists was the result of an effort made at
the close of the war by Acknowledgment

thus to preserve a likeness of every Yer
mont officer. The Legislature cordially APP

Plate.Printed Newspapers.

The country newspaper of to-day is very
different affair from what it was a few
years ago. The first innovation upon the
publication of the country papers at home
was " the patent outside that is, paper
published one half in Chicago or some other
city and the remainder in the town where
it claimed to be issued. These patent out
sides " were furnished to the owner of the
country paper as cheaply as he could buy
the white paper on which he had been in
the habit of printing his newspaper. They
saved him half the cost of publication and
great deal of labor in preparing matter for
the printer. But the patent outside "
was not a country newspaper 1t could not
in its limited space give either the news or
the advertisements its patrons wanted, and
they were getting into disfavor, when
new device was started. This is the
plate-printed matter" One or more estab-
lishments in the country are making plates
of various lengths and widths to fit the col
umns OF the country papers, which contain,
as a rule, some inane reading matter, and
the papers are buying them instead of Sc
lecting from other papers suitable extracts
or giving the letters and views of the peo-
pie of the neighborhood. There may pos
sibly be a little saving made both in the
cost and labor of issuing newspaper by
using these plates, but the paper loses in in
fluence and standing more than it gains in
money and ease. The country paper before
the advent of these devices was a power in
the section where it was printed. Properly
edited, as most of them were, it not only
gave the news of the day and the week, but
also gave the opinions of prominent men in
the neighborhood, either in communications
or through other methods, with extracts
from the leading papers of the country
Now it prints in these plates matter of no
possible interest to its readers. The coun-
try paper should go back to its primitive
methods. 1t may cost more to set up 4"
hpmp a better
paper-one that its readers will appreciate
more highly and that will mold public
opinion as in former times washington

THE vast number of stories that have been
printed in regard to the two Stains and
their associates, endeavoring to connect
them not only with the Dexter bank robbery
but also with nearly all the mysterious muir
ders and burglaries that have occurred in
New England during the past fifteen years,
are becoming confusing 1t is evident that
little confidence can be put in the words of
the younger Stain. Hammond and Steele,
whom young Stain said his father muir
dered, are shown to have died natural
deaths. AS to the Messenger murder, there
is very little ground to connect the elder
Stain with it. The same may be said of many
of the other crimes laid at his door. The
elder Stain and Cromwell had preliminary
hearing at Dexter Maine, Saturday. 1t
was shown that the two men We're in DeX-
ter on the day OF the bank affair. The
alleged confession of Cromwell to a con-
federate that he and Stain killed Barron
was put in evidence. and the prisoners were
held TO await the action of the grand jury.

The principal reliance of the counsel for
the Chicago anarchists seems to be upon
the admissions of juror that he had read
the newspapers, and that, though he be-
leved he could render an impartial verdict
upon the evidence he was prejudiced
against the prisoners 1t is claimed that in
consequence of the acceptance of this juror
and one or two other errors Of like impor-
lance, the conviction was without due
process of law" and therefore in violation
of the fourteenth amendment. 1t is upon this
ground that the intervention of the federal
courts is asked.

Tho Danger Point F0ssea'
We call special attention to a letter
from DIR. j. Campbell Shorb in an
other column of to-day's HERALD,
That very eminent physician has
besn here for several days. lie
has looked carefully into all the facts
and circumstances of our smallpox
trouble, and deliberately says that
whatever danger may have existed
here y short time since, the almost
entire absence of new cases for five
days. and the mild type of the only
new one found during that time. JUS
tifes him in declaring that the danger
u now over. He also says that ne
had . conversation with DR.. X. Bev-
erly Cole yesterday afternoon, and that
gentleman declared that nothing had
been said by him, since he came
here to investigate our situation. that
could be construed into declaration
that the disease was anything like
spidemic. The factis, our newspaper
friends in San Francisco have SO
grossly exaggerated the condition OF
things here as to produce a greater
scare in the North than was felt here
At any time. Not only have these
papers done us great harm in this
State, but they have been the cause
of the most baseless and sensational
reports reaching the Eastern press.
We saw last night dispatch from a
gentleman in Chicago who is con-
nected with Wells. Fargo q Co.'s
express. He had made ARRANGEMENTS
to come here with his family, and he
sent thus dispatch to find out whether
Il was wise for him to bring them.
He said the Chicago papers were
publishing fearful accounts OF the
ravages of the disease here, and
Wis he'd to know the real facts Now
all this lying and exaggeration is
simply infamous, and will surely re-
act upon those who have been instru-
mental in circulating the foul SLAM
ders. When the people of the East
come to know-as they soon will
that they have been imposed upon
and our city cruelty slandered, they
will divine the motive and their SYM
pathies will be aroused in our behalf.
Fair play is jewel which the aver
age American prizes dearly, and we
are greatly mistaken if the Eastern
ers do not feel stronger impulse to
coma here when they know how
shamefully we have been maligned
than if no effort had been made to
prejudice them against US. The
VII ole contemplate business will ul-
tim ately turn out to be powerful
and far-reaching advertisement in our
favor. Now that the disease may be
truly said to have passed from the
stage in which in which there was
the slightest danger, we can calmly
review the field, and sum up the
whole thing in few words: The un-
approachable salubrity of our climate
enabled us to pass unscathed through
an ordeal that would have had fright
ful consequences in such city as
HAn Francisco.
